Recipe: Vegan Yogurt

This non-dairy yogurt is prepared with pectin and calcium water. Working with non-dairy milks can be a bit tricky, and some brands of ingredients may work better than others. This recipe was tested with several brands of pectin and only Pomona's Pectin successfully created desired results.

Using Pectin and Calcium Water

Each box of Pomona's Universal Pectin includes pectin and a separate packet of monocalcium phosphate to make calcium water.

Some alternative milks have added calcium. If the milk thickens in the blender when pectin is added, do not use calcium water. Doing so can result in overly thickened yogurt.

To make calcium water put 1/2 teaspoon white calcium powder and 1/2 cup water in a small, clear jar with lid and shake well.
